Really there should just be a big thread for birthdays or something, so many 1+ posting and uselessness.
But thats just my opinion.

Because BBS posts are serious business, and each post should be held to rigorous specifications to ensure literary excellence.

On your birthday, I hope no one makes you a thread and no one comments on that news post.

yea the whole "o its my birthday, be awesome to me" shit is really getting annoying, nobody cares if its someones birthday anyway, so people dont need to get posts for saying it

Seriously, who even reads these things anymore?

Birthday threads are supposed to act like a present, as in, the +1 "Happy Birthday" posts actually mean something to that person.

It's when people have to make their own threads that it's annoying/pathetic.

You would have to be one hell of a lonely person to post your birthday on the newgrounds bbs.

Horrible idea.

There would be so many people just posting Happy Birthday to people who had their birthday like 5 months ago and then people would just start saying it's their birthday when it really isn't. I think birthday threads are fine even with all the +1 posts but how can that be avoided?

Some are. Which is why most of us are very careful in what we post.

However I've never seen a problem with birthday threads. You share the same birthday with 18 million people around the world. So at least the front page isn't completely flooded with Birthday threads.

Beh, it's not a big deal. It's that one user's special day, let them have a thread filled with +1 and best wishes.

What's wrong with birthday threads? If you don't like them, ignore it, stop crying about it. Not to mention, there really aren't a lot, I usually only see 2 to 3 a week.

People who make their own birthday threads are lame... but if someone else makes your birthday thread for you then there's really nothing objectionable about it.

Yes, i can't stand when people make their own birthday threads. If you're going to make your own birthday thread then USE YOUR USER PAGE BLOG.
